Publishing Untruths.


Publishing Untrutbs.
Articles have been going the round OF
the press to the effect that the liquor men
of Belyidere are endeavoring to assass
mate the advocates of prohibition. The
Warren Journal in its last issue ridiculed
the idea of attempted assassination, and
published the following:
"Somebody in Belvidere is trying hard
to turn the Prohibition martyr business
into ridicule. Every toy pistol that is
discharged and every stray bullet that is
fired is given out by the local correspond
ents Of the New York papers as an at
tempt to assassinate some Prohibitionist.
Richard B. Shafer is the latest candidate
for honors of this character. A stray
buck shot from toy pistol, said to have
been fired by some little boy along the
race, lodged IN the building some distance
from where Mr.. Shafer was at work, and
forthwith long account was sent to the
New York papers of his attempted as
sassination by the liquor interest Why,
nobody wants to kill Dick. 1t would de-
prive the temperance party of candidate
for political honors, when nobody else is
willing to accept and 1t would deprive
our town Of genial, good-hearted fell
low. Ii Dick was gone we would lose
half the music of the campaign. VIZ
think the Belvidere correspondent of the
Associated Press and some of the Other
papers, can beat even Bill Nye with their
fabulous stories. Not one-half of thu
news sent out from here has any founda
ton in fact, and is invented in the fertile
brains of these space writers for the pur
pose of earning little money. 1t ma,
be fun for them, but it is rough on thl
publishers.

Big Rain Storms.
Heavy rains visited this section last
week. On Friday and Saturday last the
rains were very heavy, and great damage
was done to crops, &c.
The Hitnterdon Democrat gives the fol.
towing account of the results Of the storm:
Packer Island was from four to five
feet under water all day Saturday, and
the foot-bridge leading from the railroad
to it was swept away.
The Branch overlooked its banks from
Clinton to the Raritan river, and the
stream was roaring, seething volume OF
water, an eighth of mile in length, and
bearing upon its troubled bosom greai
stacks of hay and grain, boxes, barrels
fence posts and rails, &C., washed from
the fields above.
The damage is great. Farmers whose
lands skirt the Branch and the brooks Of
any importance lost hundreds of dollars
worth of farm crops, fencing and the like.
We cannot at this time give the losses in
detail.
Hundreds of people were carried to
Pennington junction during Saturday
afternoon and evening by Conductor Da-
Wis train, to see the mad waters of the
Branch, which at that point was as wide
as the Delaware river. The water was
within IS inches of the high-water mark
Cat Barton's Bridge of the great flood Of
1885.
The town Of Clinton, or the part of it
lying adjacent to the river, was almost
entirely submerged, filling cellars and
floating things about the streets in great
| confusion.

A House Swept Away and Two Women
Buried Under Landslide.
AS result Of the heavy rains land
slide took place at Manunka Chunk on
Saturday afternoon, demolishing a house
and causing the death of two persons. 1t
is a romantic spot, with the Manunka
Chunk Mountain on one side of the road
bed and the Delaware river winding along
the base. The connection between the
Delaware. Lackawana and Western. and
| the Belvidere DIVISION Uf the Pennsylya-
MIA Roads is made by an embankment
fifty feet high, at the base Of which lived
George Fox, in two story frame build
ing, having a small annex, with his fami-
ly. At $3.50 O'Clock in the afternoon,
Fox was in the annex with his mother,
Mrs. Jane Fox, aged n ; Mrs. Lucy
Beers, aged 33, and John Snyder Fox
assembled the steep embankment and was
examining the track when he noticed a
trembling of the earth under his feet. -
He called to his family about the danger
that threatened them, but at the same in
slant the whole mass gave way, striking
the annex and demolishing it in an in
slant. Snyder was carried about one hun
dred and fifty feet with the flood and COW
cred with mud and water, escaping, how
ever, with no serious injury.
Mrs. Fox and Mrs. Beers, who at the
time were clearing up the table, were no.
where to be seen. Mud, stones and por-
tions Of the building were strewn over
many yards Of surface, and among this
Mr.. Fox and neighbor began the search
TO. them. Mrs. Beers was soon found,
still alive, but died while being extrica-
ted. Her head was badly bruised and q
number of bones broken. Word was sent
to Belvidere and citizens hastened to the
spot and a systematic search for the body
Of the old lady was made. The table
cloth was clutched with death grip.
More than five hundred people were pres
ent, the most of whom were neighbors of
the old lady, and the crowd was augment
ed by passengers on trains who stopped
to render assistance. In the main build
ing at tho time were the wife of Mr.. Fox
and Miss Jennie Beers, daughter of the
dead woman, both of whom have been
sick for month. The mud and water
rushed in their room when the crash came
and the shock completely Frustrated them.
They are now in critical condition and
but little hopes for tho recovery of Mrs.
Fox, are entertained, Mrs. Beers resided
In Bristol aud had buried her husband
but two weeks before. She was a sister
Of Mrs. George Fox.
The tracks are washed for distance of
quarter of mile. 1t had rained almost
necessarily for three days, and all the
streams were filled to OVERLOOKING.

The StriKe.

New YORK, February 4.-The White
Star steamship Republic, and the Gun
ard line steamship CITY of Chicago,
scheduled to sail to-day with trans
atlantic mails, will not be able to get of
because of the strike.
There was a slight improvement in
the condition Of affairs in the river
front this morning. Steamship com
panies are nearly recovering from the
stagnation of business that the strike at
first caused, and are moving freight
with more dispatch than on any of the
past four or five days. Nowhere is this
more noticeable than on the East River
front. Steamers Sre being got away on
their regular sailing days, and freight
lines are once more receiving and de-
livering goods. In most cases the work
on steamer piers is being done By green
men and on freight lines by deck hands
of freight boats.
